    Hello

    "beep" codes normally indicate a hardware problem / failure.

    Go to your computer manufacturer's website and look at the specifications of your PC to see what BIOS you have

    Then read this on the 'beep' error codes to try to see what failed:

    If you are unable to determine the hardware problem yourself, contact the manufacturer if under warranty.

    If it is not under warranty, find a good repair shop premises to take.

It worked perfectly on my previous XP machine, but it does not work on my new Windows Vista machine. The data source is a Microsoft Access database stored locally on the c:\ drive.

    Any ideas? Thank you!

    Windows Vista is not supported with CF 7. You have three options:
    -Try the CF 8 'Scorpio' beta from http://labs.adobe.com/
    -use a database that works with the driver of JDBC Type 4 over TCP/IP
    -use a supported operating system

    You can try those Microsoft committed the 'experts' ideas Support Engineer (1, 2, 3) for safe, clean boot Mode, Online Scanner, but I think that most of the people who know how XP would recognize that there is no component 'V protect' in Windows XP and a simple search Google reveals that your problem is with your AVG software and has nothing to do with Windows XP.

    You should look in their forums (like me) and here's what they suggest:

    Vprotect belongs to AVG Security Toolbar.
    Please try to run repair installation using the latest installation package.

    If the problem persists, please follow all the steps in the instructions to complete reinstallation .

    I think that if I were you, I would follow the instructions on the page AVG to uninstall and reinstall your AVG because there may be other parts of AVG who are afflicted that you have not yet discovered, but in AVG, some people with V forums protect problems find that AVG repair install works.

    Try this just in case where you use Adobe reader x.
    Open a PDF document. And to the toolbar above, select Edition, then Preferences.
    In the left pane, select 'General '.
    On the right side down, you will see an entry for 'Enable Protected Mode at startup,' with a checkbox next to it. Clear this check box, and then click ok. Try to print now and see if it works.
    If you don't have Adobe reader X, let me know what you have and I'll try to help more.
